Answer:

The force of friction between sled and snow is 48.14 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force applied on the sled, F = 80 N

The angle with the sled and the ground is 53 degrees. We need to find the force of friction between sled and snow.

The horizontal force acting in the horizontal direction is given by :

F_x=F\ cos\theta

F_x=80\times cos(53)

F_x=48.14\ N

So, the force of friction between sled and snow is 48.14 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

A constant velocity implies the two forces must be equal and opposite.
Friction acts horizontal to the ground, therefore we must find the force applied to the sled rope that acts horizontal to the ground.
Do this by resolving:
Force = 80cos53
The force opposing this is equal, and so also = 80cos53 = 48 N (2 sig. fig.)

A Honda Hawk motorcycle and its rider with a combined mass of 450 kg travels around a curve of radius 106 m with a speed of 18 m
umka21 [38]

Answer: coefficient of static friction

= 0.31

Explanation: Since they negotiate the curve without skidding, the frictional force (F1) equals the centripetal force (F2).

F1= uN

F2 = M*(v²/r)

M is the combined mass 450kg

V is the velocity 18m/s

r is the radius 106m

N is the normal reaction 4410N

u is the coefficient of static friction

Making u subject of the formula we have that,

u = {450*(18²/106)} /4410

=1375.47/4410

=0.31

NOTE: coefficient of friction is dimensionless. It as no Unit.

A race car has a maximum speed of 0.104 km/s .What is this speed in miles per hour ?
sweet [91]

Answer:

232.641374 mph

Explanation:

A race car has a maximum speed of 0.104km/s

Let X represent the speed in miles per hour

Therefore the speed in miles per hour can be calculated as follows

1 km/s = 2,236.936292 mph

0.104km/s = X

X = 0.104 × 2,236.936292

X = 232.641374

Hence the speed in miles per hour is 232.641374 mph

natta225 [31]

Answer:

20000 W

Explanation:

Power: This can be defined as the rate at which energy is dissipated or used. The S.I unit of power is Watt(W).

The expression of power is given as,

P = E/t.............................. Equation 1

Where P = power, E = Energy, t = time.

Given: E = 200 J, t = 0.01 s

Substitute into equation 1

P = 200/0.01

P = 20000 W.

Hence the average power = 20000 W
